Australian teenage skateboarding sensation Arisa Trew won Olympic gold in the women’s park event on Tuesday, edging out Japan’s Cocona Hiraki in silver and Britain’s injured Sky Brown in bronze.

The 14-year-old Trew, in her trademark pink helmet, nailed a high-risk and high-speed final round to leap to the top of the rankings, bringing the crowd to their feet at a sun-drenched Place de la Concorde stadium.

Hiraki, who won a silver at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics when the event was first introduced, delivered two typically smooth and high-scoring runs but was eclipsed by Trew’s spectacular last routine.
